A novel investigation of vapor-phase charge-transfer complexes of halogens with n-donors by electron energy loss spectroscopy

Complexes of I2 with diethyl ether and triethylamine and of Br, with diethyl ether have been investigated in the vapor phase for the first time by employing electron energy loss spectroscopy. Besides the CT bands, blue-shifted vacuum-UV bands of the halogens have been assigned; the amine-I, system appears to exhibit two CT bands,associated with two different excited states of the complex.

Area Efficient Loop Filter Design for Charge Pump Phase Locked Loop

In this paper, two new dual-path based area efficient loop filtercircuits are proposed for Charge Pump Phase Locked Loop (CPPLL). The proposed circuits were designed in 0.25 CSM analog process with 1.8V supply. The proposed circuits achievedup to 85% savings in capacitor area. Simulations showed goodmatch of the new circuits with the conventional circuit. Theproposed circuits are particularly useful in applications thatdemand low die area.

On solitons with half integral charge

Can certain soliton states, with half integral expectation value of charge, be also eigenstates of charge X with half integral eigenvalue? It can be so only with a somewhat sophisticated definition of charge.

Radiation induced depinning of a charge density wave system

The frequency-dependent response of a pinned charge density wave is considered in terms of forced vibration of an oscillator held in an anharmonic well. It is shown that the effective pinning-frequency can be reduced by applying a d.c. field. If a strong a.c. field, superposed on a d.c. field is applied on such a system “jumps” can be observed in the frequency dependent response of the system. The conditions at which these “jumps” occur are investigated with reference to NbSe3. The possibility of observing such phenomena in other systems like superionic conductors, non-linear dielectrics like ferroelectrics is pointed out. The characteristics are expressed in terms of some “scaled variables” — in terms of which the characteristics show a universal behaviour.

Non-ohmic conduction and electrical switching under pressure of the charge transfer complexo-tolidine-iodine

The current voltage characteristics ofo-tolidine-iodine, with stoichiometry 1:1 grown from benzene, have been studied under high pressures upto 6 GPa atT=300 K andT=77 K. The characteristics show a pronounced deviation from ohmicity beyond a certain current for all pressures studied. At room temperature, beyond a threshold field the system switches from a low conductingOFF state to a high conductingON state with σON/σOFF ∼ 103. TheOFF state can be restored by the application of an a.c. pulse of low frequency. The temperature dependence of the two states studied indicates that theOFF state is semiconducting while theON state, beyond a certain applied pressure is metallic. The characteristics atT=77 K do not show any switching.

Charge-resonance energies in dimer cations of aromatics

t is shown that the charge-resonance contribution to binding of the radical dimer cations of aromatic hydrocarbon decreases as the size of the hydrocarbon molecule increases.

Intermolecular charge-transfer complexes of macrocyclic polyethers with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone

The interactions of benzo-15-crown-5, dibenzo-18-crown-6, and dibenzo-24-crown-8 with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano- 1,4-benzoquinone have been studied in methylene chloride by using spectroscopic methods. These crown ethers from 1:l molecular complexes with the acceptor. The magnitudes of association constants and thermodynamic parameters of complexation are indicative of cooperative interaction of oxygens with the acceptor.

Charge distribution, dipole moments and molecular structure of some organogermanium compounds

Formal charge distributions in, and the electric dipole moments of, a few simple organogermanium compounds have been evaluated by the method of R. P. Smith et al. [J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 73(1951) 2263]. The difference between the experimental and calculated moments in the case of alkylhalogermanes is explained in terms of the pπ—dπ back bonding effect outweighing the electron releasing effect. In unsaturated compounds, the differences are attributed to possible mesmeric effects involving the expansion of the germanium valence shell.

Conformation And C-N Rotational Barrier Of Dithiocarbamate Esters Nmr And Molecular-Orbital Studies

The variable temperature proton and ambient temperature carbon-13 NMR spectra of S-methyl dithiocarbamate esters have been recorded. The results of the theoretical energy calculations (CNDO/2 and EHT types) together with the experimental data have been interpreted in terms of the molecular conformations. The barrier heights for the rotation about the thioamide C—N bond are calculated using the CNDO/2 method and the results are discussed in terms of the computed charge densities and bond orders.

Nonequilibrium charge transport in an interacting open system: Two-particle resonance and current asymmetry

We use the Lippman-Schwinger scattering theory to study nonequilibrium electron transport through an interacting open quantum dot. The two-particle current is evaluated exactly while we use perturbation theory to calculate the current when the leads are Fermi liquids at different chemical potentials. We find an interesting two-particle resonance induced by the interaction and obtain criteria to observe it when a small bias is applied across the dot. Finally, for a system without spatial inversion symmetry, we find that the two-particle current is quite different depending on whether the electrons are incident from the left or the right lead.

Charge transfer complexes of crown ethers with neutral organic gyama-acceptor, 2-dicyanoethylene 1,3-indane dione

The interaction of benzo-15-crown-5, dibenzo-18-crown-6 and dibenzo-24-crown-8 with 2-dicyanoethylene 1,3-indane dione in CH2Cl2 has been described in terms of the formation of 1 : 1 molecular complexes. The magnitude of association constants and thermodynamic parameters indicate cooperative interactions of oxygens with the acceptors. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the complexes show that gyama-gyama interactions are a major source of ground state stabilization in these complexes.

Charge transfer in Chevrel phases

Chemical shifts of Mo K-absorption edge and Mo core level binding energies in Ax Mo6 Ch8 (Ch = S, Se, Te) Chevrel phases show clear evidence for charge transfer from the A element to the Mo6 cluster. The chemical shifts vary linearly with the intercluster Mo-Mo distance as well as the rhombohedral parameter.

Analyticity of the charge-monopole scattering amplitude

We study the analyticity in cosθ of the exact quantum-mechanical electric-charge-magnetic-monopole scattering amplitude by ascribing meaning to its formally divergent partial-wave expansion as the boundary value of an analytic function. This permits us to find an integral representation for the amplitude which displays its analytic structure. On the physical sheet we find only a branch-point singularity in the forward direction, while on each of the infinitely many unphysical sheets we find a logarithmic branch-point singularity in the backward direction as well as the same forward structure.
